Here is another chapter of Nessa's Story
Chapter 13: Hospital Treatment
Soon the ambulance has arrived in the mansion as the medical people went inside with a bed trolley; the ambulance doctor came to Nessa's room and said to Mufasa
"Sir, we need you to carry her downstairs so we put her in the bed trolley and escort her into the ambulance"
Mufasa nodded before he carries the whimpering young lioness to the bed trolley as the medical doctors then took Nessa to the ambulance. Mufasa then goes with Nessa into the ambulance as Angel and Scamp sadly watches them leave in the vehicle.
On the way to the hospital, Mufasa notices the paparazzi waiting at the hospital entrance before he sternly said:
"How did they know I was coming?"
"Well most of our staff here like to spread rumors about these types of things once it goes out from our call centers" The driver explained.
"Don't worry, we'll take the back entrance where they won't find us" The doctor assured the lion.
Mufasa sat beside Nessa who was really scared and so unsure of what's going to happen to her; He rubs his paw on the young lioness's head and said in a soft soothing voice:
"Ssssh...It's alright Nessa; we're going to get through this together"
"W-Where am I going?" Nessa whimpered.
"We're going to the hospital and the doctors will check up on you and do something about those bruises and wounds of yours" said Mufasa.
"Mufasa...I'm so sorry" Nessa apologized.
"Sssssh, we'll talk about this later, OK?" Mufasa soothed.
Nessa nodded as they finally reach to the hospital via back entrance from behind the ambulance and moments later, the doctors have place Nessa in a hospital bed in one of the rooms.
Just then an short dinosaur-like looking doctor comes in with a notepad as he said
"Good evening Mr Pride, I am Professor Knight and I'll be your doctor for this evening"
"Good evening Mr Knight and thank you for coming on some short notice especially at this time at night" Mufasa greeted the doctor.
"No need to thank me, sir, It's my part of my job as a doctor to help those in need...Now, who do we have here with us?" Knight asked.
"This is Nessa Chamberlin" Mufasa introduced the young lady.
Knight goes to the young lioness and said
"Evening Miss Chamberlin"
Nessa looks away as Mufasa goes to her and gently said
"It's alright Nessa, He's a doctor; He's here to help you"
"Now Nessa, I need to take your gown off and look at your bruises on your body" said Knight.
Nessa was shaking a bit as she was scare of having her body expose to Mufasa and Dr Knight.
"I...I don't think I can do that" Nessa softly refuses.
"Why not?" Knight asked.
"Because she's afraid of showing her body to you gentlemen"
The others turn to the door and saw Shere Khan with his cane as Knight was surprised Shere Khan was here and asked
"Sir? What are you doing here?"
"Just paying a little visit, there is until I saw my dear old friend Mufasa with the lovely lady" said Shere Khan.
"Hello to you too" Mufasa greeted softly.
"So tell me Mr Knight, What's the situation with this poor lioness?" Shere Khan asked.
"Sir, you're not a doctor anymore and this is a private appointment for Mr Pride" said Knight.
Shere Khan gave Professor Knight a small smirk before he replied
"Well then, I'm sure Mufasa wouldn't mind take your place when the PA tells you to
be in the operation room"
"What? But I'm-!" Knight started.
Suddenly there was announcing on the PA as a female voice can be heard saying
"Dr Knight, you are required at the operation room immediately, Dr Knight to the operation room thank you"
Professor Knight gazed at the tiger in bewilderment as he asked
"How the hell did you know that was going to happen?"
"Simple, I overheard one of the nurses talking about summoning you to the operation table for a code yellow on my way here" said Shere Khan.
Knight looks at Shere Khan for a moment until he sighed
"Very well but make sure you leave when you're done and bring the reports to my desk"
"It shall be done my old friend" Shere Khan deeply chuckled.
Professor Knight leaves the room as Shere Khan closes the door behind him and goes to Nessa.
"Ok madam, I need you to stay still and relax" The tiger said.
Nessa nervously looks at Mufasa who smiled at her and said
"Don't worry Nessa, Shere Khan is one of my trustworthy friends and he's an excellent doctor...though I'm still curious to know why he's no longer a doctor"
Shere Khan looks at Mufasa coldly and replied
"That, my friend is my own business, if I were you now I be concern for Nessa at the moment"
"Right" Mufasa nodded.
"Now Mufasa, I will ask you to wait outside" Khan said.
"So you're going to...?" Mufasa asked
"Yes, I'm going to strip Nessa nude, wash her body, apply the cream and put a hospital gown on her" Khan simply replied before he smirks at Mufasa and added:
"Anything else you want to know?"
"No I'm good" Mufasa replied, blushing red before Khan escorts Mufasa out, locks the door and closes the blinds in the room.
"M-Mufasa" Nessa started as she didn't feel like being alone with Khan.
"Ssssh...Now, now, settle your worries down; you're in safe hands" Khan gently purred.
Shere Khan then gently strips Nessa nude without hurting the lady as the tiger looks at the bruises and wounds on Nessa as he was not please with this
"Tsk,tsk,tsk...This is unacceptable...Very unacceptable indeed; what kind of a bastard would lay his filthy hands upon a innocent lady like you?" Khan softly questioned.
Nessa didn't want to answer as she was nervous and scared enough as it is, she was trying her hardest not to cry and to remain strong for herself.
"So you won't give me a simple answer? Very well, I shall not force you to answer" Khan nodded.
The tiger then goes to the room table where the sink is, grabbing a cloth and a metal bowl from the cupboards and applies warm water into the metal bowl. Khan then returns to Nessa before he applies the cloth in water and begins to clean the young lady, much to her discomfort and pain from her bruises.
"I know how you feel, madam but I'll make sure your wounds heal properly, i give you my word" Khan assured the lady.
Soon Shere Khan goes to clean her legs slowly as he didn't want Nessa to feel more pain with the deep bruises and the wounds she has on her body. Once he finishes cleaning the legs and lower body, he then slowly moves onto the upper body to which the female lioness moans in pain as Khan strokes her head and calmed her down. Soon the tiger gently turns Nessa on her stomach then washes the back of her body.
"Ok, now that I've clean you; I'm going to apply Hirudoid Cream on you to prevent swelling and ease your bruises away" Khan explained.
"O-OK" Nessa nervously nods.
Once Shere Khan applies the Hirudoid cream around every damaged area on Nessa, the tiger gently helps Nessa lift up to her posterior and puts a hospital gown on the female lioness. Shere Khan soon opens the door to let Mufasa in as he then said to his old friend:
"She is going to be physically OK, the bruises will heal and the swelling will reduce; just give her a couple of rubs with Hirudoid cream for the next few days"
"Thanks Khan, I own you one" Mufasa thanked as he sighs in relief.
"Anytime, my old friend; now for the report, Nessa must stay here for a couple of days and I recommend you to keep an eye on her, Whilst I did say she was physically OK, it's possible that she is still mentally hurt from her recent experience on whoever harmed her and I hope to intend to find out about this situation" said Shere Khan.
"As do I" Mufasa agreed.
"Now if you'll excuse me, I must give this report to Professor Knight and then I will inform him to call the police and have them here as soon as possible in the morning" Shere Khan replied
"W-Why? You don't need to call the police; I'll be OK once I find a way to leave the city" Nessa softly points out.
"No Nessa, you're staying here with us so we can look after you" Mufasa said to Nessa.
The older tiger looks at the young lioness and explains: "Madam, you've being deeply physically abused by some one that you clearly feel against your own will to reveal to us; this person must answer to his crimes committed on you and so forth"
"But if I tell you...he'll find me and he'll kill me then hurt all of you for helping me" Nessa sadly panicked.
"Nessa..." Mufasa started.
"I can assure you Miss Chamberlin, This guy will not kill you as long as we are around and you are safe now" Khan vowed before he left the room
"Nessa, I gave you my word that this son of a bitch whoever he is, will pay for what he did to you and I'm gonna make sure of it" Mufasa comforted Nessa and helps her go to sleep.
Meanwhile outside the hospital entrance, Khan sees a media crowd protesting through the police that are blocking the entrance.
"Go home people, there is nothing for you here" A police man barks at them.
"We know Mufasa Pride is in there and we demand some explanations" One of the news crew shouted out.
"The people have a right to know" Another news reporter exclaimed.
"How pathetic and desperate these worms need for anything to boost their star qualities" Khan scoffed before he sees the outdoor sprinklers above the news crew and plans an idea.
The tiger privately lifts a cigarette and smokes through it before inhaling out high to the sprinklers before it detected smoke and activated it's emergency mode; the outside sprinklers soon spits down water on all of the news crew; ruining their equipment, clothes, everything as they run off in confusion and anger, driving away from the hospital.
"Pussies" Khan scoffed before putting out his cigarette on the ground outside, just as the outside sprinklers turned off, to which Khan then goes to his car and drives home.
Shere Khan is one mysterious tiger isn't he? He maybe a friend but he sure is a devious one at that. Will Nessa finally trust Mufasa and tell him the truth? What happens next? Stay tune to find out next time on Nessa's Story.
